LXX2012: Septuagint in English 2012
This is a translation of the Old Testament and Apocrypha/Deuterocanon from Hebrew to Greek to 19th Century British English, with some updates
of spelling and word usage to contemporary American English. The original English translation was done by Sir Lancelot Charles Lee Brenton and
published by Samuel Bagster & Sons, Ltd., in London in 1851. It has entered the Public Domain due to the passage of sufficient time. In the
process of scanning and typing the text, the original poetry and prose formatting, as well as peripheral material like introductions and notes, have
been omitted.
This edition of the Septuagint has some language updates. Brenton's word order and punctuation has been mostly retained, meaning that quotation
marks are not used, and sentences within quotes may not start with capital letters, as was standard usage in 1851. Names transliterated from Greek to
those transliterated from Hebrew in the common English Bibles often differ. These language updates are dedicated to the Public Domain by the author
of those edits, Michael Paul Johnson. Therefore this edition may be freely copied, published, etc.
Before considering making changes to the text of this work, I recommend that you consult with God, because this is really His Book.
If you find errors in the text, please report them so that we can correct them.
